"And they are working hand in hand to move the president's agenda forward". "And I can tell you who is going to win", Trump said. Still, it remains far from clear how long a Secretary of State who has lost the ear of the President can remain in the post.

Both teams are in need of depth at the linebacker position. "We wish him and his family great success".

The two were key to San Francisco's run of three straight trips to the NFC title game and one Super Bowl appearance. Cowboys defensive leader Sean Lee, who has battled injuries throughout his career, has already missed time this season with a hamstring injury.

In 2015, Bowman showed that he could bounce back from injury, recording 154 tackles, seven tackles for a loss, 2.5 sacks, and one forced fumble. Today the 49ers take the field against Washington, just five miles from where Bowman played high school ball. San Francisco have lost their first five games this year under first-year coach Kyle Shanahan.
